This involved ensuring the safe and secure movement of the former president during the event. The second responsibility was to man and staff security posts within the secure area of the Butler County Farm show.

In addition to these responsibilities, the Pennsylvania State Police also provided two marked cars with uniformed troopers outside of the secure perimeter. These troopers were assigned roving duties to enhance security measures and ensure the overall safety of the event.
